<div> </div>
<div>I'm currently evaluating the usage of rust in a dPDK application.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I wonder if there is other people who have done similar and would like to share experiences.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I have seen there is a couple of rust interface projects like capsule-rs.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Do you know of blockers why people seem to not be maintaining rust libraries like this one in the long term?<br/>
<br/>
My research sofar has shown:</div>
<div> </div>
<div> - rust codegen seems to be quite similar to C</div>
<div> - rust can generate autovectorized code</div>
<div> - ffi seems to be very low cost (similar to C++)</div>
<div> - allocation can be tricky given that there can be panics on allocations</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I would love to hear your thoughts and reasoning.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Best regards,</div>
